Hive or Pig - Which one gives best performance for reading HBase data

[Nagabhushanam Bheemisetty]

Hi,

I have a situation where I need to read data from huge HBase table and dump
it into other location as a flat file. I am not interested in all the
columns rather I need only lets 10 out of 100+ columns. So which technology
Hive/Pig gives better performance. I believe both of them will use serde'
to extract and build record.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
